Directed Announcement for UTE (ROSS) - 2020

Resident Opportunity and Self-Sufficiency Program

Resident Associations (RAs) are also eligible to apply. RAs and non-profit applicants that are not RAs must have either locally-incorporated nonprofit status (usually designated by the state) or 501(c)(3) nonprofit status designated by the IRS. All applicants with nonprofit status must submit documentation attesting to their nonprofit status. See "Definitions" for more information. Indian Tribes as defined in Section 4(13) of NAHASDA are eligible to apply for FY20 ROSS funding. Tribally-designated housing entities (TDHEs) as defined in section 4(22) of NAHASDA (25 U.S.C. 4103) are also eligible to apply for FY20 ROSS funding. For-profit entities are not eligible to apply. EDSC Provision: PHAs that are currently eligible to receive annual funding under the Elderly/Disabled Service Coordinator (EDSC) program from the Public Housing Operating Fund that apply to serve elderly/disabled resident through this NOFA will forgo all future eligibility for EDSC funding through the Operating Fund. If you are receiving EDSC funds, you may apply to serve families only on the HUD-52768 to not risk your EDSC funding. To confirm if your PHA is affected by this EDSC provision, please see the list of PHAs that are eligible to receive EDSC funding: https://www.hud.gov/sites/dfiles/PIH/documents/CY2020-EDSC-List.pdf. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations are not eligible to compete for, or receive, awards made under this announcement.
